This is a cardboard house I started making for 20mm gaming a while ago. I put it on hold when I converted to 15mm. I am revisiting it as the scale I used for 20mm was very exact in terms of modelling which made it a bit too small to use properly for 20mm. As a result it should work for 15mm as it is slightly larger which will enable figure stands to be placed inside comfortably without looking too big and out of scale for 15mm. below is the progess I had made so far. I have included a second, almost finished building that has been made the same way using the same materials. It will look very similar when completed.
The walls are made using cardboard from paper boxes. By removing the paper from one side the corrugations are very useful for showing floor boards or making stairs.
I have used pencil to roughly indicate where I will glue pieces on for more shape and texture
This is the back view showing the first floor. I have put a little too much detail into the ruin which
will prevent the bases from fitting, so I will need to sort that out still

This is a piece that I have finished already, the technique is the same.
I use plaster for the paving and score it while it is still wet
The brick work is laser printed, glued on and then I paint plaster over the top for texture and effect.
A bit of scatter grass, a pot scourer for the hedge and a tree to finish it off.
